Ultimate Reset: Days 16 & 17
Days 16 & 17
Hey hey!
Week 3 is playing all sorts of mind games with me! I'm feeling amazing (physically) and am at my LOWEST weight ever as an adult! But I'm dealing with a few internal struggles:
-I'm SO sick of vegetables, I'd at the point where I'd rather starve than eat them. I'm fine until dinner and then that big plate of veggies just makes me angry. If I wasn't breastfeeding, I would probably skip dinner. But because I need to keep my calories up, I choke down the veggies with hatred and frustration.
-I spent the past few weeks craving coffee, but now I don't even want it and I'm wondering if I'll even drink it once I'm finished. I fantasized about having a big cup of coffee on Saturday when I'm finished, but that fantasy is starting to drift away.
-I want to eat delicious foods, BUT I'm feeling so good that I also don't want to!
AHHHH!!! The struggle!
Surviving Easter
Yesterday was Easter and even though it was a huge struggle, we stayed on track!
We had our fruit plate for breakfast, packed our salads for lunch, made our Shakeology at my in-laws', and cooked our dinner (sauteed veggies and a baked sweet potato) for dinner.
We turned down bagels, cream cheese, Cadberry eggs, ham, turkey, cheddar rolls, and alcohol! BUT we did have ONE bite of this adorable cake because cake is my #1 weakness! It was incredibly delicious, but I got a tummy ache right away...from just one bite of pure butter and sugar! This reminded me that when I eat crap, I feel like crap! One bite was enough!
Today I felt the best I've felt yet! I have tons of energy, my creativity is at an all-time high, I don't have any cravings (I just don't want to eat any more of these veggies), and I'm at my lowest weight as an adult!
Today's menu:
First thing: 24 oz water with Mineralize, Optimize, and Revitalize supplements
30 minutes later: Breakfast - Fresh fruit plate (3 cups of fruit!) and oatmeal
{{Oatmeal is NOT part of the week 3 meal plan, BUT London has teeth coming in and wants to nurse ALL day. My husband actually said she's like a leech, constantly attached to me! Ha! So I added in the oatmeal to keep my supply strong.}}
2 hours later: Mineralize, Optimize, and Revitalize supplements
30 minutes later: Lunch - Moroccan Carrot Salad over Greens
2 hours later: Power Greens powder with water
30 minutes later: Snack - Vegan Chocolate Shakeology + peanut butter + cinnamon
2 hours later: Mineralize, Optimize, Soothe, and Revitalize supplements
30 minutes later: Dinner - Curried Cauliflower and Lemon Kale
{Ughhh! Not gonna lie, this one was rough. These things would be delicious as a side dish to some steak, but a large amount of both was nauseating!}
I'm off to bed because that gets me closer to the finish!!!
See you tomorrow!
